Here Come the Huggetts (1948 Ken Annakin)

The family has been remodelled for some reason, thus Harrison and Warner's children are now Jane Hylton (Passport to Pimlico), Susan Shaw and Petula Clark, and centres mostly on arrival of tarty relative Diana Dors and the disruptions she causes.

Jimmy Hanley, David Tomlinson and Peter Hammond also feature and there's a mini This Happy Breed reunion with Amy Veness (as grandma, of course), John Blythe, Alison Leggatt and even (I think) Merle Tottenham in the Royal Wedding crowd.

A gin and french = gin and vermouth. Doesn't that = a martini?
A gin and it = gin and sweet vermouth.
